Well, my being on fire would certainly be my fault if I had tried to pick up the fire.

The house of el is a good YouTube channel from a researcher that seems to tell it how it is.

AI can do amazing things and its here to stay, but the tech bros will say anything to secure some more funding.

Again, that’s irrelevant.

I don’t really disagree, this is not a conversation about how police should be armed.

If you’re trying to describe the event, “a cop blew off a students hand” is very obviously a misrepresentation.

You’re welcome to make a case that the cop shouldn’t have been there or shouldn’t have been armed, but “a cop blew off a students hand” does not describe what happened.

Oh please. I’m not defending anyone. I’m just pointing out the absurdity of your statement.

This kind of hyperbole might impress 16 year olds but in political discourse you just seem like an idiot.

None of that is relevant to the question of whether the statement “a cop blew off a students hand” accurately describes the event.

You’re very obviously omitting key details with intent to mislead and it just undermines your position.

My carpets are fine without that

Ah… sure they are.

I’m sure you didn’t mean it this way but this question is kind of about consent and / or rape.

Feeling aroused while being raped is a common source of guilt on the part of the victim. This is well documented. You could google it if you’re curious about that.

I’m not a mod here but this might be a rule 2 violation.

I don’t think Americans can really throw any shade on anyone about how to protest.

That’s a misrepresentation.

Whether or not you want to hold the cop responsible is irrelevant.

“a cop blew off a students hand” is intentionally omitting critical information.

Well there’s not really events where lonely kitten owners congregate so in this regard, kittens are not analogous to children.

These days pets seem to be analogous to kids. Check out puppy pre school or something.

I’m a parent.

Kids activities are awash with lonely single parents.

Metric allows you to convert between length volume and mass in your head. Someone smarter than me could probably take a reasonable estimate of how long a kettle will take to boil just by knowing it’s wattage and estimating its volume.

You’re right that “pounds” may have e been a practical measurement back when people didn’t have calibrated and everyone’s hand weighed a pound. However, that advantage ceased once everyone standardised those measurements.

A metre is equally divisible by 50, 25, 20, 10, 5, and 2. There arr numerous advantages to a base 10 system.

Imagine running code generated this way on your machine.

“Make a script to clean up my home folder”

“No… Not like that. Uh… Make a script to restore my photos.”

I’m a slop coded bullshit AI service struggling to get traction because I provide no actual value. I’ve never participated in the fediverse before so didn’t realise there are actual humans here who lean towards criticism of AI bullshit. Because I told you this upfront, you have to like me.

1. ICE at polling places
2. Lost ballot boxes
3. Elon
4. Postal shenanigans
5. Republicans lose house and senate convincingly
6. Lots of legal challenges
7. House and Senate just don’t acknowledge newly elected reps, delay, et cetera
8. Lots of legal challenges that proceed very slowly
9. Impeachment
10. Martial law
11. Lots more legal challenges
12. Nothing changes.

I wish you luck Americans but as a nation you’ve demonstrated that you’re unable to respond to this challenge.

As if I summoned you from the ether, here you are.

I think this is probably unanswerable because it’s subjective. No one can agree on where the center actually is.

Election trolls love to espouse the view that the Democrats, the left most of the two major American political parties, is actually a right wing party. I’m sure the usual idiots will be along in a moment to proselytize.

Obviously however, if there are two points on a horizontal spectrum, one will be on the left and the other on the right.

Sorry brother this makes me twitchy. Needs air.

When the conditions are right the bimbos just emerge, as if coalesced from the ether.
